Threshfield is a village and civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England, sitting on the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales near Grassington. It occupies classic Dales limestone country, with the dramatic outcrops of Kilnsey Crag and the nearby course of the River Wharfe through Wharfedale, making it a handy base for walkers and visitors exploring the area.

Historically tied to upland farming and small-scale quarrying, the local economy now leans heavily on tourism and outdoor recreation, with people drawn to nearby features such as Malham Cove and Gordale Scar. The village retains a strong community feel, stone-built houses and lanes that reflect its rural Dales heritage while serving as a gateway to the surrounding moors and valleys.
